Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
[0010] A mode for implementing the gaming machine according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0011] (Feature Part 132SG Form) [Form 1] The gaming machine of Form 1-1 is a gaming machine (for example, pachinko gaming machine 1) capable of executing variable display and being controlled to an advantageous state (for example, jackpot gaming state) advantageous to the player by deriving a specific display result (for example, jackpot) as a result of the variable display, display means (for example, image display device 5), sound output means (for example, speakers 8L, 8R), a movable body (for example, on-board movable body 32A, under-board movable body 32B, frame-top movable body 132SG01, chance button 631B), movable body control means (for example, effect control CPU 120), and effect control means (for example, effect control CPU 120), and the effect control means is During variable display, it is possible to execute a moving body effect using the moving body (for example, as shown in FIG. 45, a part capable of executing a moving body preview in which the on-board moving body 32A vibrates up and down). The display means can display an effect display corresponding to the moving body effect (for example, as shown in FIG. 49, a part where the effect display 132SG407 is displayed on the image display device 5 according to the operation of the on-board moving body 32A). The sound output means can output a moving body effect sound corresponding to the moving body effect (for example, in the moving body preview shown in FIG. 49, a part where the effect sound is output from the speakers 8L and 8R). The moving body control means When the power is turned on, it is possible to perform confirmation movement control to move the moving body by an operation for confirming that the moving body operates normally (for example, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, the production control CPU 120 executes a new operation confirmation control process to perform the initial operations of the on-board moving body 32A, the under-board moving body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the on-frame moving body 132SG101). When the moving body effect is executed, it is possible to perform effect movement control to move the moving body by a predetermined operation (for example, as shown in FIG. 47, the production control CPU 120 moves the on-board moving body 32A up and down a plurality of times between the origin position and the intermediate position). When the movable body effect is executed in a variable display started during a predetermined period in which the confirmable movement control is performed when power is turned on with initialization, when the movable body effect is executed during the predetermined period, the effect movement control and the output of the movable body effect sound are restricted, while the effect display is performed. When the movable body effect is executed after the predetermined period, at least the effect movement control and the display of the effect display are performed (for example, as shown in FIG. 62, when the pachinko game machine 1 is started by a cold start, during the initial operation period of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101, a start winning occurs, and based on the start winning, a variable display for executing a movable body preview is started during the initial operation period of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101. During the execution period of the movable body preview, the movement of the on-board movable body 32A as the movable body preview and the output of the movable body preview sound corresponding to the movable body preview from the speakers 8L and 8R are not executed, while the effect display 132SG407 is displayed on the image display device 5. As shown in FIG. 61, when the pachinko game machine 1 is started by a cold start, after the initial operation period of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101, a start winning occurs, and based on the start winning, a variable display for executing a movable body preview is started. During the execution period of the movable body preview, the movement of the on-board movable body 32A as the movable body preview and the part where the effect display 132SG407 is displayed on the image display device 5), When the movable body performance is executed in the variable display started during the predetermined period in which the confirmation movable control is performed when the power is turned on without initialization, when the movable body performance is executed during the predetermined period, the performance movable control is restricted, while the effect display is displayed and the movable body performance sound is output. When the movable body performance is executed after the predetermined period, the performance movable control, the display of the effect display, and the output of the movable body performance sound are performed. (For example, as shown in FIG. 66, when the pachinko machine 1 is started by hot start, a start winning occurs during the initial operation period of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101. Based on the start winning, when a variable display for executing a movable body preview is started during the initial operation period of these on-board movable body 32A, under-board movable body 32B, chance button 631B, and upper-frame movable body 132SG101, the operation of the on-board movable body 32A as a movable body preview is not executed during the execution period of the movable body preview. On the other hand, the effect display 132SG407 is displayed on the image display device 5, and a movable body preview sound corresponding to the movable body preview is output from the speakers 8L and 8R. As shown in FIG. 65, when a start winning occurs after the initial operation period of the on-board movable body 32A, under-board movable body 32B, chance button 631B, and upper-frame movable body 132SG101 when the pachinko machine 1 is started by hot start, and a variable display for executing a movable body preview is started based on the start winning, during the execution period of the movable body preview, the operation of the on-board movable body 32A as a movable body preview, the display of the effect display 132SG407 on the image display device 5, and the output of the movable body preview sound corresponding to the movable body preview from the speakers 8L and 8R are performed.), It is characterized by this. According to this feature, when the movable body performance is executed in the variable display started during the confirmation movable control, it is possible to provide a gaming machine that can show the player that the movable body performance has been executed by the output of the effect display and the movable body performance sound while preventing the confirmation movable control from being hindered by the performance movable control.
[0012] The gaming machine of Form 1-2 is The degree of expectation of being controlled to the advantageous state is higher when the movable body performance is executed than when it is not (for example, as shown in FIG. 45, the big win expectation degree is set higher when the movable body preview is executed than when the movable body preview is not executed). When the movable body performance is executed in the variable display started during the predetermined period in which the confirmation movable control is performed at the time of power-on with initialization, when the movable body performance is executed during the predetermined period, the performance movable control and the output of the movable body performance sound are restricted, and after the end of the predetermined period, the performance movable control restricted during the predetermined period is performed, while the output of the movable body performance sound is not performed (for example, as shown in FIG. 62, when the pachinko game machine 1 is started by a cold start, a start winning occurs during the initial operation period of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101, and a variable display for executing the movable body preview is started based on the start winning during the initial operation period of these on-board movable body 32A, under-board movable body 32B, chance button 631B, and upper-frame movable body 132SG101. During the execution period of the movable body preview, the operation of the on-board movable body 32A as the movable body preview and the output of the movable body preview sound corresponding to the movable body preview from the speakers 8L and 8R are not executed. On the other hand, after the initial operation of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101 ends, the operation of the on-board movable body 32A as the movable body preview is executed again, but the output of the movable body preview sound corresponding to the movable body preview from the speakers 8L and 8R is not executed). When the power is turned on without initialization, if the movable body performance is executed in the variable display started during the predetermined period in which the confirmation movable control is being performed, when the movable body performance is executed during the predetermined period, the performance movable control is restricted, and after the end of the predetermined period, the performance movable control restricted during the predetermined period is performed (for example, as shown in FIG. 66, when the pachinko game machine 1 is started by hot start, a start winning occurs during the initial operation period of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101. If a variable display that executes a movable body preview is started during the initial operation period of these on-board movable body 32A, under-board movable body 32B, chance button 631B, and upper-frame movable body 132SG101 based on the start winning, during the execution period of the movable body preview, the operation of the on-board movable body 32A as the movable body preview is not executed. On the other hand, after the initial operation of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101 ends, the operation of the on-board movable body 32A as the movable body preview is executed again). It is characterized by this. According to this feature, it is possible to provide a gaming machine in which the performance effect does not decrease because the performance movable control in the movable body performance with a high degree of expectation controlled in an advantageous state remains restricted.
[0013] The gaming machines of Form 1-3 The movable body includes a first movable body (for example, the on-board movable body 32A) and a second movable body (for example, the under-board movable body 32B). When the power is turned on, the movable body control means can perform the confirmation movable control for moving the first movable body and the second movable body by an operation for confirming that the first movable body and the second movable body operate normally (for example, the part where the performance control CPU 120 executes the operation confirmation control process shown in FIGS. 31 and 32). The confirmation movable control ends based on the completion of the movement of the second movable body (for example, as shown in FIG. 61, the initial movements of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101 end with the completion of the initial movement of the under-board movable body 32B as the last part). The movable body effect is an effect using the first movable body (for example, as shown in FIG. 49, the movable body preview is the part where the on-board movable body 32A is moved). When the power is turned on, if the movable body effect is executed in the variable display started during the predetermined period in which the confirmation movable control is being performed, when the movable body effect is executed during the predetermined period, the effect movable control is restricted, and when the movement of the second movable body by the confirmation movable control ends, the effect movable control restricted during the predetermined period is performed (for example, as shown in FIG. 62, when the pachinko gaming machine 1 is started, a start winning occurs during the initial movement period of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101, and if a variable display for executing the movable body preview is started during the initial movement period of these on-board movable body 32A, under-board movable body 32B, chance button 631B, and upper-frame movable body 132SG101 based on the start winning, the effect movement of the on-board movable body 32A as the movable body preview is not executed during the execution period of the movable body preview, and the effect movement of the on-board movable body 32A is executed again after the completion of the initial movement of the under-board movable body 32B). It is characterized by this. According to this feature, it is possible to provide a gaming machine in which it is not impossible to distinguish between the confirmation movable control and the effect movable control by executing the effect movable control using the first movable body when the movement of the first movable body by the confirmation movable control ends.
[0014] The gaming machines of Forms 1-4 are When power is turned on with initialization, the effect control means can execute an initialization notification corresponding to the initialization (for example, as shown in FIGS. 61 and 62, when the pachinko game machine 1 is started by a cold start, the frame LEDs 9a and 9b, the on-board movable body LED 9d, the under-board movable body LED 9e, the upper-frame movable body LED 9f, and the chance button LED 9g emit light in a manner corresponding to the initialization notification, and at the same time, the speakers 8L and 8R output an initialization notification sound). The execution period of the confirmation movable control and the execution period of the initialization notification overlap (for example, as shown in FIGS. 61 and 62, the initial operation periods of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101 overlap with the light emission periods of the frame LEDs 9a and 9b, the on-board movable body LED 9d, the under-board movable body LED 9e, the upper-frame movable body LED 9f, and the chance button LED 9g in a manner corresponding to the initialization notification, and the initialization notification sound output periods from the speakers 8L and 8R). The execution period of the initialization notification is longer than the execution period of the confirmation movable control (for example, as shown in FIGS. 61 and 62, the light emission periods of the frame LEDs 9a and 9b, the on-board movable body LED 9d, the under-board movable body LED 9e, the upper-frame movable body LED 9f, and the chance button LED 9g in a manner corresponding to the initialization notification, and the initialization notification sound output periods from the speakers 8L and 8R are longer than the initial operation periods of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101). After the end of the execution period of the confirmation movable control and when the movable body performance is executed in the variable display started during the execution period of the initialization notification, when the movable body performance is executed during the execution period of the initialization notification, while the performance movable control and the display of the effect display are performed, the output of the movable body performance sound is not performed (for example, as shown in FIG. 67, even when a variable display for executing a movable body preview is started during the initial operation of the on-board movable body 32A, the under-board movable body 32B, the chance button 631B, and the upper-frame movable body 132SG101, if the execution period of the movable body preview is after the operation of each movable body ends, the performance operation of the on-board movable body 32A and the display of the effect display 132SG407 on the image display device 5 are executed during the execution period of the movable body preview, but the light emission in a manner corresponding to the initialization notification of the frame LEDs 9a, 9b, the on-board movable body LED 9d, the under-board movable body LED 9e, the upper-frame movable body LED 9f, and the chance button LED 9g and the output of the initialization notification sound from the speakers 8L and 8R are not executed). It is characterized by this. According to this feature, even during the execution period of the initialization corresponding notification, if the confirmation movable control has ended, the performance movable control can be executed, and a gaming machine can be provided that does not reduce the performance effect of the movable body performance.
[0015] The gaming machine of Form 1-5 The performance control means can execute a predictive movable body performance suggesting that the movable body performance will be executed in a variable display before the variable display based on a specific variable display pattern in which the movable body performance is executed (for example, as shown in FIG. 45, the part where the performance control CPU 120 can execute a predictive movable body preview). When the predictive movable body performance is executed, the movable body control means can perform a specific performance movable control for moving the movable body by a specific operation (for example, as shown in FIG. 47, the performance control CPU 120 can move the on-board movable body 32A up and down a plurality of times between the origin position and the intermediate position as a predictive movable body preview). The execution period of the variable display in which the preview movable body effect is executed is shorter than the execution period of the confirmation movable control (for example, the special figure variation time of the variable display in the non-reach deviation is 12 seconds or less, and the initial operation period is 30 seconds), When the power is turned on, if a plurality of start conditions are satisfied during the predetermined period in which the confirmation movable control is being performed, and the preview movable body effect is executed in the variable display started based on the satisfaction of the start conditions, when the preview movable body effect is executed during the predetermined period, the specific movable control is restricted. When the variable display in which the preview movable body effect has been executed during the predetermined period ends, the specific movable control restricted during the predetermined period is not performed after the end of the predetermined period (for example, as shown in FIG. 68, when the pachinko game machine 1 is started with a cold start and a plurality of variable displays occur during the confirmation operation of each movable body as the initial operation control and the execution of the preview movable body notice is determined, if the execution period of the preview movable body notice overlaps with the confirmation operation period of each movable body or the period of the initial operation control, the effect display 132SG407 is executed on the image display device 5 during the execution period of the preview movable body notice, and after the end of the variable display, the effect operation of the on-board movable body 32A as the preview movable body notice is not executed again). It is characterized by this. According to this feature, when straddling a variable display, since the specific movable control restricted during the confirmation movable control is not executed, it is possible to provide a gaming machine that does not excessively move the movable body after the confirmation movable control ends and confuse the player.
[0016] The gaming machines of Forms 1-6 are In one variable display, the effect control means can execute, as the movable body effect, a first movable body effect (for example, the first movable body notice shown in FIG. 69) and a second movable body effect (for example, the second movable body notice shown in FIG. 69) whose ratio of being controlled to the advantageous state is higher when executed than the first movable body effect. The movable body control means is When the first movable body performance is executed, it is possible to perform first performance movable control for moving the movable body by a first predetermined operation (for example, a part for operating the on-board movable body 32A a plurality of times between the origin position and the intermediate position). When the second movable body performance is executed, it is possible to perform second performance movable control for moving the movable body by a second predetermined operation (for example, a part for operating the on-board movable body 32A a plurality of times between the origin position and the intermediate position). When the first movable body performance and the second movable body performance are executed in one variable display started during the predetermined period in which the confirmation movable control is being performed when the power is turned on, when the first movable body performance is executed during the predetermined period, the first performance movable control is restricted, and after the end of the predetermined period, the first performance movable control restricted during the predetermined period is performed. If the second movable body performance is executed before the restricted first performance movable control is performed, the first performance movable control is not performed and the second performance movable control is performed (for example, as shown in FIG. 69, if the initial movement of the movable body has already been executed during the execution period of the first movable body notice, the movement of the on-board movable body 32A as the first movable body notice is executed after the end of the initial movement of the movable body, but if the movement of the on-board movable 32A as the second movable body notice has already been executed before the movement of the on-board movable body 32A as the first movable body notice, the movement of the on-board movable body 32A as the first movable body notice is not executed and the movement of the on-board movable 32A as the second movable body notice continues to be executed). It is characterized by this. According to this feature, it is possible to provide a gaming machine in which the production effect does not deteriorate due to the movement of the movable body in the first movable body performance inhibiting the movement of the movable body in the second movable body performance.
[0017] The gaming machine of Form 1-7 is further provided with light emitting means (for example, frame LEDs 9a, 9b, on-board movable body LED 9d, under-board movable body LED 9e, upper-board movable body LED 9f, chance button LED 9g), and light emission control means (for example, production control CPU 120). The light emitting means is provided on the movable body (for example, the on-board movable body 32A is provided with the on-board movable body LED 9d, the under-board movable body 32B is provided with the under-board movable body LED 9e, the upper-frame movable body 132SG101 is provided with the upper-frame movable body LED 9f, and the chance button 631B is provided with the chance button LED 9g).
